    Table was ready when we arrived. Food was delicious. Everyone enjoyed their meal. We were there to celebrate a birthday which we indicated on the reservation, however the server never mentioned it. We were asked if we wanted more drinks but the server never asked if we wanted dessert and brought the bill before we even had a chance to ask for a dessert menu.

    Great vibe on a busy Friday night. Drinks and apps were our fav! Could see all managers assisting staff, especially Tiffany. We will return.

    The food was delicious. I had the sesame salmon bowl. The mango salsa adds just the right amount of pizazz to the dish. We also had a bacon and blue burger that was cooked exactly as ordered and was so big, half of it came home. Our waitress, Sophie, was attentive and very pleasant. So glad this latest location opened up in Salem, NH.

    Second visit to Tavern. We were 3 for lunch. Server attentive and patient. One of us hard of hearing. Ahi tuna bowl cooked just right. Others had burger and burratta and thoroughly enjoyed. With plenty to take home. Very busy 1:00 on a Friday. My only markdown was for the noise level. As people left around 1:30 it improved. Yes, will return.

    Thought they have a wide range of options in the menu with reasonable pricing and server was very personable. I would revisit in next trip to the area.

    Only complaint is that all the bathrooms are unisex bathrooms which is really disgusting for women to deal with. Totally killed my good vibe
